Program 6 of 7
Apprenticeship Training
Learn the trade by working beside people who practice it.
Our objective
Provide hands-on, job-ready skills to young women and men to help them secure stable employment or start their own businesses.
Why it matters
The Apprenticeship Training program gives young people real-world skills and work experience that can lead to employment or to a business of their own. It is especially valuable for young people who have not had access to formal education but have every potential to learn a trade.
What the program includes
-
Structured apprenticeships
Basu partners with local businesses and artisans to run structured apprenticeships. Participants work alongside experienced practitioners to gain practical knowledge and technical skills in trades such as carpentry, tailoring and metalworking.
-
Support for self-employment
For those who want to start their own business, Basu offers entrepreneurial training, including guidance on business planning, financial management and marketing, so apprentices can move into self-employment after training.
-
Job placement and internships
After their apprenticeship, Basu helps participants find employment or internships with local businesses and artisans, improving their chances of finding permanent work.
